Spherical organisms, with an average diameter of about 22 microns, were detected in the lungs of adult and pouched young hairy-nosed wombats (Lasiorhinus latifrons). Although infections of up to 640 X 10(3) organisms per cubic centimeter were detected, their presence produced only limited pathological change. In-vitro growth was obtained at 30 C but not at 37 C or 40 C. However, at the higher temperatures, typical chlamydospore spherules were produced by colonies initially grown at 30 c. This report presents the first record of adiaspiromycosis in Australia and in wombats.
在成年和幼年有袋毛鼻袋熊（Lasiorhinus latifrons）的肺部检测到平均直径约为22微米的球形生物体。尽管每立方厘米检测到多达640×10³个生物体的感染，但它们的存在仅产生了有限的病理变化。在30℃可实现体外生长，但在37℃或40℃则不能。然而，在较高温度下，最初在30℃生长的菌落会产生典型的厚垣孢子球状体。本报告首次记录了澳大利亚以及袋熊体内的阿迪孢子菌病。
